Staff is very nice but owner is very bossy and arrogant. Room is very nice but not worth the price, bathroom is clean, bed is avg, restaurant is expensive, 7€ for a coffee!!!!! View is poor unless you pay 100€ more!!!way too expensive for the price.

Dear Sir,
Your comment makes me think the following remarks :
- "very traditionnal but not worth it" : as you well noticed the very traditional style of our house, does that mean tradition is not worth ?
- during your short stay (1 night), you were welcomed by myself, you checked-out with my colleague, and you hardly saw or...

We are fans of the Relais Du Silence group of gastronomique hotels, but feel somewhat letdown by this one, particularly given some of the accolades in the reviews. We were comfortable with the amount asked but ultimately not what we got for it. An overly narrow room, with an extremely small enclosed toilet, and hot water that only arrived after...

Dear Sir,
We were happy to welcome you from 9th to 11th June. When you checked-out and paid your bill, you filled the usual comment card, giving the best marks (excellent) to all items. You forgot to leave the key of your room, and we couldn't reach you by phone nor by mail, so we were glad to receive it...

Travelling from Torino to Lyon and choose the mountain route. In Late April so wayyyyy off season. Even so we loved the place. While restaurants were a struggle to find the community was beautiful and we truly enjoyed everything about it. The hotel was wonderful and the staff were very helpful...so much so that the owner even called us on...

We spent two nights at le Choucas while skiing in Monetier. The snow was cold and hard, the reception at Choucas was warm and inviting. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and spacious. Nicely set up to allow one of us to slip out and ski while the other slept in.
The set menu...

My husband booked the Auberge for a weekend at the beginning of October after a very busy summer working and hosting many family and friends. We had such a warm welcome and very much enjoyed the food even though, for the auberge, it was very much low season prior to the build up to winter, Christmas and skiing. We were...

Great little intimate hotel we chose because of the restaurant, which was worth the trip. We went at the end of the season late August, so they were not overwhelmed with guests. Service was very friendly, the owner spoke to us at dinner and insisted on checking on our stay when we were leaving, a rare customer focus. The room...

Dear Sir,
Your comments about our hotel and our restaurant have for us the very taste of that “best lamb” you described. The chef, myself and the staff thank you for your “good” appreciation, a kind of gastronomy for us. Our chef is glad when clients are able to recognize his passionate and creative work, with fresh products of high...

Having stayed at Le Choucas before we returned this year with high hopes and were not disappointed. The ambience, reinforced by welcoming and courteous staff, is restrained yet warmly quirky. The food is good and the dining room, roofed by arches of undressed stone, is an experience in itself. The bedrooms are comfortable and the standard of service high. The...

just stayed a week there. we stayed there a week as well last year and the over all excellent quality (rooms, food, atmosphere) we experienced a year ago was unchanged.special mention to the food with a very good chef now in his second year. great breakfast buffet

This was one of the highlights of our 2 week trip. Great room, excellent food, wonderful staff. They really wanted you to feel like you were staying in a small charming Inn and we were. We felt right at home. The dining room was excellent! Be sure to have breakfast there, it is a real treat!

Having read numerous poor reviews of L’Auberge du Choucas, none of which were recent I might add, I admit to having had doubts about booking this hotel. I am always dubious of the number of stars appointed to European hotels as I do not think they necessarily meet the same criteria as those in the UK. However, as most of...
